Abstract
In the last decade, new approaches focused on modelling uncertainty over complex relational data have been developed. In this paper one of the most promising of such approaches, known as Probabilistic Relational Models (PRMs), has been investigated and extended in order to measure and include uncertainty over relationships. Our extension, called PRMs with Relational Uncertainty, has been evaluated on real-data for web document classification purposes. Experimental results shown the potentiality of the proposed methods of capturing the real "strength" of relationships and the capacity of including this information into the probability modelI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
